Cursillo Family
Camping Weekend
|
|
In
the summer time we
gather for a Montreal United Church and Neighbouring Cursillo Community
Family Camping Weekend, where friends are always welcome. The last
several camping weekends were held at
the Long
Sault Parkway -
McLaren Campground, located between Morrisburg and Cornwall,
Ontario.
You would love this campground. The beach is right there as well as a
big playing field for soccer, baseball, football or any other sport.
The park for the little ones is also close by and the facilities are
very clean.
This year our
Cursillo camp weekend was held July 10 and 11,
2010 at the same place as before, the Long Sault
Parkway -
McLaren Campground, west of Cornwall. About 18 attended. Most came for the weekend, while some came for one day only. All had a great time.
Each family made their own reservation. Please reserve your site
as early as possible, because the sites go like
hotcakes, by calling one of the following numbers: 1-800-437-2233 or
1-613-543-4328.
It is an awesome area. Please reserve your
campsite in the following order:
73,
74, 75, 76, 77, 78, 79, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47.
When you call in you will be told if the number you chose has been
taken. These campsites are close to the beach, a park area for kids, the
washroom facilities and all amenities. If you can't make it for the
whole weekend, please let Lisa Byer-de Wever know if you will be
joining us on Saturday for the day or Sunday morning.
Hope to see you out there for this amazing weekend of community, fun,
fellowship, music and lots of food!
Our 2009 camping weekend was held July 25 and 26. About 25 people attended and had a great time. In 2008 our camping weekend
was held Friday July 4 to Sunday July 6.
There were about 30 poeple. Some stayed for the weekend,
others
overnight, or some just the day. There was a wonderful
sing-song
on Saturday night under the stars and with … of course
SMORES
(yum-yum). Sunday we had a small worship service to give thanks for
the great weekend and many other Blessings, and spent the rest of the
day on the beach. It was a wonderful time for all! Again it
was an amazing weekend of
community, fun, fellowship, music and lots of food!
Our
2007 family camping
weekend was held
Saturday July 21 and Sunday July 22, 2007. The weather was beautiful,
after
the pouring rain on Friday (that's why we started the camping only on
Saturday, not on Friday as we did in previous years). Twelve families came out for this wonderful
weekend. While most were there both days,
some dropped in for one day only. In 2006 our camping weekend was held July
14-16, 2006; the one
before that July
29-31, 2005.
